Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 3 Clear Her Name

There was doubt on Maxwell's face. He didn't think that Harper had lied. But was Jade really not pregnant? Was it really just a hoax? With all of that being said, did that mean he couldn't have children?

"General, I was born with nothing and I'll die with nothing. I know for a fact that you are a man of indomitable spirit. I will not allow anyone to deceive you like this. Even if I have to risk my life, I won't let you get played." Seeing how Maxwell hesitated, Harper vowed with the utmost certainty that even Matthew almost believed it.

"Maxwell, the only reason she's talked so much is because she fears for own life. How could she be so cruel to my poor child who died miserably? I don't want to live anymore. Please just sentence me to death so I can accompany my poor child!" Jade cried her heart out. Breaking free from Maxwell's hold, she pulled back her arm to hit the pillar. However, with his quick reflexes, he was able to stop her just in time.

Although Maxwell still had doubts, he felt embarrassed to see his beloved concubine this way.

"Lady Jade, are you afraid of being found out?" Matthew interjected.

"Your Highness, what have I ever done to deserve that accusation? How could you treat me like this?" sobbed Jade.

"I'm just curious. As we all know, Harper is a well-known imperial physician. If you had a difficult labor, I'm sure it would occur to her to take the child out alive. Since General Maxwell attached great importance to the child, she wouldn't have been so careless," Matthew explained, his eyes squinting in skepticism. "I believe there's something wrong with the whole thing. General, since things have come to this, why not give Harper a chance to prove her innocence? She won't be able to escape anyway."

"Wait!" Jade said anxiously. "We have to consider the general's well-being. What if she hurts him? She may get some dirty tricks up her sleeve."

"General, I swear on my life that I'm telling the truth. In addition, you don't need to worry because all I need to do is prick your finger and take a drop of blood. It's entirely superficial," Harper said calmly. Then, she took a deep breath and added, "But we also need the baby's bone..."

"Go get the bone," Maxwell ordered a servant.

Jade's eyes widened in shock. "Maxwell, no...no..." she stammered.
